The following commands:
echo 'Pará,9\nParacito,0' | sort --field-separator=, -k1
and
echo 'Pará,Z\nParacito,A' | sort --field-separator=, -k1
give
Pará,9
Paracito,0
and
Paracito,A
Pará,Z
respectively.
Sorting the string 'á\na' results in 'a\ná', so I would expect the commands
above to put Paracito before Pará, but this is not the case for the first
command. Why is that?
Regards,
Wolter HV
